My fiancé just got approved today at her interview in Manila. She was surprised how fast it went and how 'few' questions they asked. I truly believe that was because we had all the paperwork filled out properly and had plenty of supporting evidence of our relationship. Just make sure you double, triple check all the required paperwork, forms, etc, etc. I spent so much time checking everything before I FedEx'd all the forms to her and I made sure she had everything on her end. Be confident and trust in God!

Have all the requirements ready that helps you feel confident, pray.. and always think positive. Bring a jacket just in case you feel cold,.. i was chilling inside and it affects my mood. Questions are standard and easy just about you and your fiance., consuls are nice. Good luck!!!
